Well Hello! Welcome to E-commerce page. As we all know that E-commerce is the new
trend when it comes to the process buying and selling of goods and services, or
the transmitting of funds or data, over an electronic network, primarily the
Internet. You can get anything you want just by a click if it is involved with
E-commerce.

GLOBAL REACH

Another key feature that e-commerce provides is its global reach, or the number of potential consumers with the ability to fulfill a transaction.  E-commerce technology permits commercial transactions to cross cultural and national boundaries far more conveniently and cost effectively than in traditional commerce. E-commerce also extends local markets to global markets, dramatically increasing a companies number of potential customers.  As a result, the potential market size for e-commerce merchants is roughly equal to the size of the world's online population which is estimated to be more than two billion and involves millions of businesses worldwide.









Before e-commerce, most companies operated on a local market basis.  Larger companies were afforded the luxury of regional and national markets. However, global market reach was experienced only by a few of the largest firms in existence. Essentially, e-commerce has created the possibility for a market equivalent to the global population that is available to even the smallest of businesses.
In contrast, most traditional commerce is local or regional that involves local merchants or national merchants with local outlets. Television, radio stations and newspapers for instance, are primarily local and regional institutions with limited, but powerful, national networks that can attract a national audience but not easily cross national boundaries to a global audience. The internet that can be reached globally enable customers to buy products from another country.
